    Put it down, woman!

    1. You might break a nail.

    2. You could even bruise a male ego or two.

    3. You’ll eat properly and still be able to lose fat. Work of the devil!

    4. You’ll look more like an athlete and less like a runway model. Skeletal is sexy, right?

    5. You’ll be able to lift heavy things without asking a man for help, thus upsetting the balance of the universe.

    6. You will be seen in public without high heels.

    7. You’ll grunt, sweat and feel sore. So unladylike!

    8. You’ll be proud of your pert bum instead of being self conscious about it like a normal woman.

    9. You’ll be more active and confident instead of sitting around looking pretty. What are you, some kind of feminist?

    10. You’ll be stronger, leaner and sexier – and we all know where that can lead!

    I, in fact, was just told to do this the other day by my ad agency...I'm not kidding. They told me to sit and look pretty like my job says to and let the "real experts" do the hard work. I promptly went home, put a picture of the dude's face on a punching bag and went at it for an hour.

    Ya, no one wants a girl who can lift like a man. Plus, I was told that if you work out too hard it'll make you bulky AND skip your period.
    Oh, and you start getting a real deep voice, it's true, I read it in a magazine!!
